It seems like it is almost big enough to sex...Vent looks male, sort of but the shots do not show the size comparison between the #1 and the #2 holes. The pointed look of the vent looks to be male to me. The overall shape of the fish looks female and I can not even see the black on the dorsal in the pics.

Where do you get female body shape lol. I am guessing because it hasn't developed the crease in it's head for the start of the nuchal Hump. You can properly sex carpinte by the time they are 3" and this fish looks a good 6".
 
the dam thing is just throwing me for a loop. im trying to xbreed it and every female i throw in there the car wants to kill or be killed and one time i tried a big male red devil and they got along fine. i dont know if its because the rd was so big in comparison that it didnt care about the car so i started thinking it may be female unless the rd is ***. ok settled male. i would get a big female car if i can find one so breeding would be easier but until then im just going to keep throwing one female fish after another in there. right now my female festa is in there and the car is liplocking the divider. lol
